Is this model electric?

Can I store leftover batter in this container?

Troubleshooting
Batter is not dispensing smoothly
Check the spout for clogs; ensure there are no large lumps of unmixed flour in the batter.
Handle is difficult to turn
Ensure the whisk mechanism is correctly aligned and the batter is not too thick.
Leakage at the spout
Verify that the seal is properly seated and that there is no dried batter buildup around the valve.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the mixer involves assembling the whisk mechanism into the canister housing as indicated in the manual. Before first use, it is recommended to rinse all parts with warm, soapy water. While the device is dishwasher safe, hand-washing the whisk mechanism can help maintain its longevity. Ensure all components are completely dry before reassembling and storing. This tool is compatible with standard pancake, waffle, and crepe batters, but avoid using it for thick mixtures that may clog the dispensing valve.
